GUEST,Backwoodsman Ross Cleveland (ship) song (14) RE: Ross Cleveland song 12 Dec 21


‘The Luckiest Sailor’, the song about the loss of the Kingston Peridot, was written by Linda Kelly, the former wife of the sailor in the song. It’s been discussed here before (possibly more than once). Linda used to post on Mudcat but it’s been several years since I’ve seen her here. She is still a FB-er though.

Sadly, ‘Hissyfit’ (Linda and Hazel Ritchings) is no more, although Linda and Hazel are still active individually on the folk-scene in East Yorks and further afield.
